Halle Berry: 'Perfect Stranger' Photocall

I wonder if Halle is gasping because she saw a reflection of herself and realised how horrible that wig looks on her head! Not a good look at all!

Speaking of Halle, she is set to join more than 2,000 legends from stage and screen history with her own square on Hollywood's Walk of Fame April 3.

Synopsis:Grindhouse is an homage to exploitation B-movie thrillers that combines two feature-length segments into one double-bill designed to replicate the grind house theatergoing experience of the 70s and 80s. In "Death Proof," a psycho named Stuntman Mike (Kurt Russell) stalks and kills beautiful women with his car. In "Planet Terror," a small-town sheriffs' department has to deal with an outbreak of murderous, infected people called "sickos." A gun-legged woman named Cherry (Rose McGowan) and her martial arts-wielding partner (Freddy Rodriguez) take on the zombie army. The two films will be fused together by fake movie trailers.

Eve Covers Giant Magazine


Triple threat entertainer Eve goes back to her hip-hop roots after a four-year sabbatical to concentrate on her self-titled UPN sitcom and fashion line, Fetish. On the cusp of her new pop/rap album, Here I Am, Eve gets chained up and glam on the April/May 2007 cover of GIANT Magazine.

In a candid interview with GIANT contributor Regina Robertson, the 28-year-old self-pronounced “pitbull in a skirt” shares her thoughts on everything from MySpace to Jay-Z to sex tapes to the state of hip hop music.

Outlined below are select passages from GIANT’s cover feature with Eve entitled: “Bound to Win.”

ON THE LEAKED SEX TAPE WITH FORMER BOYFRIEND STEVIE J.
“I was hurt by it. But what kept me calm was that everybody knew he was my boyfriend. Not that I wanted people to see me having sex, but it wasn’t like I was getting gangbanged – that would have been crazy.”

ON THE DECLINE OF HIP HOP MUSIC
“For me, it all started with (D4L’s) ‘Laffy Taffy.’ When I first heard that song on the radio, I just knew it was a joke, but then I kept hearing it. Every artist has the right to do what they want, but I don’t believe in making that kind of music. It’s disposable. Hip-hop is in cardiac arrest, but I think it’s revivable.”

ON RECONNECTING WITH LIL’ KIM
“I used to roll in the car with my high school friends listening to Biggie and Kim. (But we were) not speaking, for whatever reason. When my publicist told me we would be sitting across from each other, I was like, ‘Are you serious?’ There wasn’t any real beef, but I just didn’t want any tension. But we ended up talking, like really talking, for forty-five minutes. We even exchanged numbers. I’d love to do a joint with Kim. I really want to see her come back, you know?”

ON INTERRACIAL LOVE
“I’m going to love who loves me, and if I’m attracted to a person, I’m attracted to them. I’ve had black men say to me, ‘Oh, I heard you were dating a white man.’ It’s like, ‘Have I gone out with (a white man)? Yes. Am I dating someone white? No, but if I was, it would be my choice, so stay out of my business.’”
